JAI #68

I'm on a roll again with my cards and have made a couple today. This one is for the Just Add Ink Challenge #68. If you haven't done so before, check out this great challenge site...not only for challenges but also for wonderful inspiration and ideas!

Anyway, this week at Just Add Ink it is a colour challenge...

I loved the look of these colours together when I saw it so couldn't resist playing along this week. Plus it uses two of my all time favourite colours...Pear Pizzazz and Baja Breeze!

So here is what I came up with...

This photo is a little dark! I was really happy with how this card turned out...simple, but effective. You probably can't see, but on the little flowers on the butterfly wings, I have stuck the tiny pearls in the middle of each and it gives the card a bit more interest and dimension!

Cardstock: Perfect Plum, Baja Breeze, Pear Pizzazz and Whisper White

I love the Just Add Ink Website...it is always full of great inspiration and I love participating in the challenges too, its always lots of fun. So to interupt my Top 10 Favourites for a minute, I wanted to show you my entry into the JAI Challenge #38 this week.

Events held for this day aims to help raise awareness about breast cancer, as well as raise funds towards research, education and patient support programs. This is something very close to my heart so of course I had to participate this week!
